First, it was the legendary Paul Weyrich, Chairman and CEO of the Free Congress Research and Educational Foundation. Second, it was the surprising announcement of American Conservative Union chairman David Keen.

Huckabee’s pulpit squad better beware. It seems the IRS is on to them. What Caesar gives he can take away. Best to mind your p’s and q’s.

The Drudge Report has a provocative headline linking here. The heart of the article is a quote from Huckabee, “I hope we answer the alarm clock and take this nation back for Christ.” RP’s will rejoice in the sentiment even if they are not sure: 1. the nation ever actually confessed Christ; and 2. that [...]

I repent. I was way too hard on Governor Romney’s speech. The more I think about it, the more I agree with Dreher and Buchanan. It was the best that could be done in our context. My Covenanter reflex was showing. Why make the good the enemy of the perfect. Sure there were empty platitudes [...]

What a “nice” speech! Did you catch it? If you missed it here is the video. Rod Dreher gives the speech two thumbs up.
